To what???


Other man, not only are you pretty you are also black, a lot of guys find that extremely appealing. that's jmo though, I may be way off.


Um, she just said she lives in a racist area, I'm pretty sure that means she's no threat to them or their racist men. I lived in a place like that for over 10 years, the last thing women like that see you as is a threat. Their men might find you appealing for whatever reason, but they know better than to ever say or do anything, it's not worth the consequences.....

not everyone here is racist but a lot are and its them that give everyone a bad name here. but im not going to walk around like i am ashamed of who and what we are. i hold my head up high because i am proud of who i am and i wont be letting a bunch of racist ignorants tell me any different. and maybe i will find a man here maybe not but at least my kids are happy and thats the main thing. girl power yay :banana:

I have never had a problem with adapting in any social environment! I dont give people a choice to like or not like me. i generally find people that state things like you just did are usually the problem and not the society around them as a whole. yes people are rude and blah blah blah, but i pay them no mind and cant even let it bother me if i tried! i love to out wit them too much! I do get irritated by peoples ignorance though but not too often!

good for you but when your a single mom in a new place where you don't have any family or friends it can and does get daunting at times even tho i am a strong character and usually pass these things of, the fact is I'm in a very racist part of the country on my own and i have a right to get upset about it when my kids could grow up thinking they shouldn't of been born the colour they are because people just don't like it. its stupid and i wont stand for it regardless.

i just find your story hard to beleive thats all! sometimes it has nothing to do with your skin color and everything to do with you!..but how the hell would i know i have never been there right! Not saying that your wrong or right only trying to give you a perspective. soemtimes people are not aware of there personality and have very low social skills! they dont realize it and no one ever tells them why people dont like them. i am a bit offensive because i just say it how it is. i am sure you have met someone that was off the wall before and thought what the hell is up with them. thats all i am saying but really i have too little info to form an opinion only a maybe why? thats why i said generally!

so i guess you get a lot of people looking down on you because of your personality then... people who say things like what you just said make me mad you know there being racist but you choose to ignore it. what would you do if someone smashed your window or beat you up would you just blame yourself and then try and forget about it. i know these people are racist because they actually say racist things. it has nothing to do with my personality. if you dont like someone you dont talk to them or you tell them what the problem is, you dont hurl racist comments at them.

you see ths is what i read. next time be more descriptive! you never mentioned violence and i dont think racism is as bad as people say. just people easily offended! but racism as you described is very wrong and i would get my kids out if that was the case. but you added those details later!

i havent been attacked or anything i was using those as examples of what could happen if you just accepted that thats the way people are if you let people take you for a mug they will carry on doing it. if you make sure people know they cant get away with things then they will hopefully take the hint and treat you with the respect you deserve

all i can say is you need to take a step in my shoes and many other black peoples shoes and you will see things a little more clearly. i have never used the "race card" to get what i want out of life i work very hard and get the resuls i want which is what my children will do. everyone can suffer from racism and everyone can be racist but its up to the individual to make a stand for themselves racism is bad and it happens all over the world but if people try and pretend that its "not as bad as it looks" then it will never stop. dont get me wrong im not about to go on a march but i will be standing up for myself when needed, as should everyone.
